It will be interesting to see what they come with for the C7...So far I have not been impressed...

Yeah, after all the hype about the "Blue Devil" ZR-1, I certainly wasn't impressed with what reality turned out to be.

I have to agree, so far the C7 seems to be a let down for what it's "supposed" to look like. But I remember seeing the C6 for the first time and wasn't impressed either. It turned out to be quite a nice car and expect the same with the C7.

They will probably release photos about the time the new Batman movie comes out...

Now that's funny!

Actually Connie and I watched an old movie last night, and I'm pretty sure the car that showed in that movie will be the basis of the new C7 Corvette.....
